The Story Behind the Product
Akwasi Agyeman was born into a family of 12 children in the small tribal village of Foase in Ghana, West Africa. The family was so poor that Akwasi was limited to only a 7th grade education in order to help his father farm to feed the family. In 7th grade his teacher asked each of them to make something for art class. Akwasi produced a Fertility Doll as his project and amazed the teacher. Akwasi knew then he had a natural talent for carving. After ten years and with the help of Fair trade Akwasi is now married with two handsome boys. He employs 15 people and has built a small three bedroom house for his family. Akwasi and his fellow artisans hope you enjoy their work.

I ordered one mask because of the price and the reviews, and I was not disappointed. I loved my mask so much, I ordered another one and now am using both as centerpieces on my "African Wall". It's huge! Most products ordered online come to you smaller than you expect but this mask is substantial. I love the feel and smell of the wood as well. Great buy.
This did not look like the picture. The metal (bronze) pieces were covered up in brown stain -- if you didn't see the original picture you would have never known!
I did not return the mask. I painted the entire mask a black lacquer stain.
I was simply in awe when I opened up this one. The workmanship was unbelievable. I bought this as a gift but will be buying one for myself. Actually going to pick up the rest of the collection one by one. You will not be disappointed with this purchase.
